CarComplaints.com Notes: Is burning a quart of oil every 1,000 miles normal? Depends on who you ask. While Subaru says it's within "normal specifications," owners wonder why they need to top off their oil reservoir 4 times between every 5,000 mile oil change.

2014 Subaru Forester Owner Comments

problem #1

Dec 282014

Forester XT Touring 2.0L Turbo

  • CVT transmission
  • 12,780 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

Terrible gas mileage (18 mpg city, 25mpg highway), rough idle, loss of power, check engine light came on eventually. Called the headquarters, they still want to inspect after the 4th time having the same problem. They told me it is not safe to drive the car, but did not give me a replacement until the dealer takes the car in for inspection (in 2 days)

Thinking of pushing for returning this car since it has been terrible so far
